Brenda Kay Cresswell

Mrs. Brenda Kay Cresswell, age 61, of Mt. Washington, returned to her Heavenly Father on Monday, October 14, 2024. Mrs. Cresswell was born in Louisville, KY on December 19, 1962, to the late James L. Hagan and Mavis E. Hagan. 

She will be warmly remembered for her compassionate, tender heart that made everyone around her feel loved.

Along with her family, her faith was the most important part of her life and she held onto it until the very end.

In addition to her parents, her brother, Dennis Hagan preceded her in death.

She leaves to cherish her memory, her loving husband of 34 years, Jim Cresswell; daughter, Briana Thornhill and her husband, Jake; son, Ben Cresswell; one grandchild on the way, Jake Thornhill IV; brother-in-law, David Cresswell (Cindy); sister-in-law, Shirley Hagan and a host of other dear family and friends.
